Why You Need GMC Work Trucks in Your Fleet

Written by Wilmar, Inc. | 8/30/19 2:37 PM

There is no question that trucks are essential in running your company. The question is, which truck is right for you? Choosing the right truck might seem easy at first- they all have storage and towing capacities. But from bed length, to horsepower, to seating, to fuel economy, there are many factors to consider.

 A sure bet when choosing your truck is to go with the company that has specialized in trucks since 1902- General Motors Company. Manufacturing pickup trucks, commercial trucks, buses, vans, military vehicles, and SUVs, it's safe to say trucks are in their wheelhouse.

Let's take a look at some GMC work trucks to see which is right for you.

GMC CANYON

The most affordable GMC truck, the Canyon, is a great pick for active small businesses. With models that get up to 30 mpg and tow 7,700 pounds, this truck doesn't mess around. Available rear-park assist, Apple CarPlay, and wireless charging pads are just a few of the amenities that add comfort to the drive.

With Duralife brake rotors and spray-on bed liners, function and safety are key elements of Canyon's design. Bump up to the all-terrain suspension package for jobs that take you off the beaten path.

 

GMC SIERRA 1500 LIMITED

U.S. News and Carmax rank the Sierra 1500 a top 5 pick for full size pickups. The most basic model, the Limited, is still loaded with features. With 355 horsepower and towing capacity of 9,400 pounds, this truck can get the job done.

Providing 61 cubic feet of cargo space and a maximum payload of 1,860 pounds, this is a truck that can meet your company's demands.

A standard trailer hitch with 4-pin and 7-pin connectors, automatic locking rear differential, and Trailer Sway Control come standard, or upgrade to integrated trailer brake control for added safety. The infotainment system and optional sport package make this truck fun to drive.

 

GMC NEXT GENERATION SIERRA 1500

Available in 5 trims, this truck raises the bar for the industry. GMC's trademarked ProGrade Trailering System offers a trailering app in your truck, along with a companion phone app and multiple HD camera views, to make trailering simple and safe.

The world's first six-function Multipro tailgate comes standard on 3 of the models, making this truck as innovative as it functional. The Multipro tailgate features a primary gate, a primary gate load stop, a full-width step, an inner gate load stop, an inner gate with work surface, and easy access.

But that's just one way it beats the competition. It is best in class in more ways than one, including:

  • Best-in-class cargo box volume
  • Best-in-class crew cab front head and legroom
  • Available first-in-class Head-Up Display with Off-Road Inclinometer
  • Available first-in-class rear camera mirror 

 

SIERRA HEAVY DUTY 2500 & 3500

With all the bells and whistles of the other Sierras, the Sierra HD tacks on some powerful extras. Take the 23,100-pound towing capacity, or the payload of 6,112 pounds for starters.

The available fifth-wheel prep package, 20-inch chromed aluminum wheels, and customizable driver display are just a few options to personalize the Sierra HD.

Stabilitrak with Trailer Sway Control keeps this truck towing smoothly, regardless of the load. One would expect a truck this size to be noisy, but the cabin is quiet, with high-tech triple door seals. 

 

NEXT GENERATION SIERRA HEAVY DUTY 2500 & 3500

In the world of trucks, this one's a beast! Towing up to 35,500 pounds and boasting a payload of 7,442 pounds, there is no job this truck can't conquer.

With a cargo box length of 82.20 inches and cargo volume of 69.50 cubic feet, you can carry all kinds of equipment.

Available in 5 trims, this truck tops the industry in new features and groundbreaking design. Along with the ProGrade trailering system and Multipro tailgate, here are a few ways the Next Generation Sierra HD beats out the rest:

  • Best-in-class max towing
  • Best-in-class heavy duty cargo bed volume
  • First ever heavy-duty offering Allison 10-Speed automatic transmission with available 6.6L Duramax Turbo Diesel V8
  • Class-leading available 15 camera views including rear camera mirror and industry-first transparent trailer
